New Zealand Eco Fashion Exposed

Monday, July 28, 2014

New Zealand embraced eco fashion last week with New Zealand Eco Fashion Exposed
gathering ethical, sustainable,
ecologically friendly, yet stylish and cutting edge
fashion from both New Zealand and beyond over a five day festival

This
year's event took place in the beautiful city of Lower
Hutt, a 30-minute drive from Wellington International Airport, New
Zealand, featuring several runway shows, a series of workshops, a designer pop-up and the Exposed Eco Expo.

Director
of Exposed, Denise Anglesey, supplied her own upcycled
range to the runway, with a presentation of 20 looks in the an 'eco vintage challenge' via her label Denise H.
Anglesey created looks using vintage dresses, reused fabrics and other
garments, presenting each design on the runway before the secrets of its
origins were revealed.

In addition to the Dulux Eco Designer Runway,
Saturday’s schedule also featured a pop-up shop and expo held at 151
High Street in Lower Hutt featuring items for sale from a selection of
the showing designers, plus other fashion and accessories.
